Running away to join the circus,
the biggest one, the dustiest,
looking back in retrospect to see
how easily it all fell into place,
marvelling at the little idiosyncrasies,
the small synchronicities wondered at,
but in hindsight, obvious,
the Playa calling my name and drawing me across 3,000 miles,
milestones littered along the way and in awe at,
“Hmm, well that’s interesting….”
Curiosity curling in my gut,
wondering why I am so sought,
that such a place would lay steps before me that all I need to do is walk forward,
the things I have sought for so long,
suddenly revealed and difficult yet so easy.
